Onrea Jones made some waves as a undrafted rookie prospect in Arizona a couple years back, but he has practice squad kind of talent. Ryan Jones was a hot name on the undrafted free agent market this year that figures to get another look. Fri, Sep 2, 2011 01:03:00 PM

Cardinals released WR Onrea Jones.

Jones did little to impress during his tenure with Arizona, but could resurface again if the team needs wide receiver help. He was cut to make room for O'Brien Schofield. Sat, Oct 30, 2010 02:21:00 PM

With Early Doucet out until Arizona's bye week, Jones will slot in as the No. 5 receiver behind Larry Fitzgerald, Steve Breaston, Stephen Williams, and Andre Roberts. Jones lost out to Max Komar in Cardinals training camp.

Coach Ken Whisenhunt indicated that Onrea Jones has taken the early lead for the Cardinals' fourth receiver spot.

Jones will likely get passed by third-rounder Andre Roberts by the end of training camp, but he at least has a shot to make the roster this year. The former Hampton University star spent last season on the practice squad.

The original-round tender is worth $1.907 million this year. Since Meredith is a former undrafted free agent, it means the Bears would receive no compensation if Meredith signed an offer sheet elsewhere and they declined to match. The receiver-starved Bears must be assuming Meredith's recovery from a torn ACL will chill his market. Meredith would have been the Bears' No. 1 receiver in 2017 if not for his preseason injury. He turns 26 in September.

Kevin White has been training with Mitch Trubisky in California this offseason.

"Kevin is working really hard to get back," said Trubisky. "I know he’s busting his tail to really do big things this year." White has appeared in just five games since being the No. 7 overall pick in 2015. He's currently rehabbing a shoulder injury he suffered last season, but White has been able to work on his routes and quickness. White won't be guaranteed anything in 2018, and the Bears are certain to add several receivers in the next two months. It's a make or break year for White.
